Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart -
Chapter 539 I Belong with Nina Now
Though Joshua had long been calm, he was stunned by his nephew's discontent.
Several years ago, Colleen gave Nina Sanchez a million-dollar check and asked her to leave. But Cameron Dauster did not seem very sad then. He packed his stuff and left the country.
It was believed by all that Cameron and Nina's relationship was not serious. Cameron was bound to forget about her after dabbling in the sensual world.
As for Nina, how could she still stay single in the corrupted entertainment circle?
The teenage relationship will be enshrined by both of them as a piece of beautiful but dusty memory. They were possibly not able to recognize the person before them when they bumped into each other years later.
But now his outstanding nephew, Cameron, dared to throw a tantrum and say that he still loved her. He even shed all his fortune just to match with her.
Joshua took a deep breath. Now he came to understand why his sister was so vexed lately.
"Alright, alright," Joshua clenched his teeth.
"You are still too young to say so. You will replace a better one after dating more people."
"For instance, I think Michelle Byrd, the date that your parents replace you, is not bad." Joshua planned to leave after leaving the words.
His sister kept on nagging him to bring Cameron and Michelle together. Since Cameron didn't seem to be sold on it, Joshua was now thinking about forcing him to meet her.
Cameron stopped him and said seriously, "I don't think it's appropriate, uncle."
Joshua sneered, "why? how can you know she is not the one if you don't go to meet her?"
"I don't mean that I am not willing to meet other girls," said Cameron. "I just think it's not appropriate since now I belong with Nina."
"What do you mean you belong with Nina?" Joshua was so confused.
The way Cameron put it really made him feel uncomfortable. How could a man say that he belonged with another woman?
Cameron took out his phone and showed Joshua the 1 million transferred from Nina. "She kept me as a secret lover, so how can I betray her?"
"What?!" Joshua failed to restrain himself from calling out.
"Well, it is what it is," Cameron said slowly, with his phone in hand, "She gave me 1 million so I belong with her now."
Cameron could tell lies without turning a hair.
Nina paid him 1 million to not ever meet again. He lied to Joshua that she paid money to keep him a lover.
Joshua was irritated. Cameron was so rebellious that he started to feel offended and humiliated.
How could a man from Dauster and Brennan family sponge off a woman?
What's more, he even managed to remain calm and poised before him.
Joshua was on his last nerve. He was so pissed off that he didn't even know what to say. He yelled at Cameron, "You are a postdoc in biology! You think you are only worth a million?" Joshua thought Cameron would feel shamed, but he replied in an injured tone, "My mom used to pay her 1 million and asked her to leave me. This is exactly how much she thinks I am worth."
Joshua nearly choked at his words. Heart-stricken and extremely furious, he even staggered a little.
Cameron was waiting to bite back. The blame should lie with his mom, for she undervalued her son! Leaning against the wall, Joshua heavily panted. He stared at Cameron with exasperation.
How could his sister and brother-in-law who behaved themselves all their lives give birth to such a maniac?
"Uncle, are you still alright?" Cameron asked and pretended to be caring.
Joshua shook his hands off, "Get out!"
As a prestigious figure in the academic world, he had long been composed. But today he was almost driven crazy by Cameron.
It took him a while to simmer down. Joshua looked into Cameron's eyes and asked, "So you've made up your mind to be with that actress?"
"I just want to follow my heart. By far she's the only one that i want to spend my life with." Cameron was smart enough to know that at this point there was no need to make things worse, so he toned down a little bit.
What was truly going on in his mind was that he wanted no one but Nina.
But he knew if he blurted that out, Joshua would flip lid or even kick his ass. So Cameron only confessed his desire to spend rest of his life with Nina.
Joshua sneered and walked away.
It was totally beyond his control.
Though his sister told him to lecture Cameron, it was already beyond his capability.
Before receiving the call from his sister today, Joshua thought Cameron would care for his feelings and listen to what he said.
Nothing was farther from the truth.
He could only patronize the young Cameron.
Now Cameron would drive him crazy.
Cameron didn't stop Joshua. He stood still and smirked, with his hands in pocket.
Since his uncle had already flinched, his parents would no longer poke their nose.
Colleen stared at Joshua after he entered the box. Joshua didn't dare to say that Cameron took Nina's money in front of Cameron's grandparents. He was afraid they would be so pissed off. Joshua forced a smile and exchanged a look with his sister. He tried to hint that they would talk about it later.
Colleen knew things didn't go well upon seeing the expression on Joshua's face.
If things went well, he would not look like that.
Obviously, Joshua was also kayoed.
Colleen was bummed out.
Today she called Michelle, telling her that now she was not able to arrange a date for her and Cameron. She thought Michelle would be upset. But it turned out that she was not glum at all. Michelle even reassured her on the phone. Now Colleen felt so sorry for her.
Michelle was smart, good-natured and from a distinguished family. Why Cameron didn't fall for her? Did Nina have any strength besides that pretty face?
She had asked around. Nina's parents were philistine, selfish and greedy. Colleen was hysterical even at the thought of getting along with them. They shared nothing in common.
She had known Michelle's parents for years who were both professors in university. They would only become closer if Cameron and Michelle got married.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
